We investigate the distribution of central spot and the encircled energy in order to assess the performance of central obstructed optical system having central obstruction, when the central obstruction and the degree of truncated Gaussian amplitude of incident beam change. When the radius of central obstruction increases the radius of central spot on the image plane decreases, and when the degree of truncated Gaussian amplitude of incident beam increases the radius of central spot on the image plane increases. As the central obstruction and the degree of truncated Gaussian amplitude of incident beam increase, the depth of focus increases and the encircled energy of central spot decreases. We know from theses results that the effect of Gaussian factor is small as the central obstruction increases. These results was applied to develope the large optical reflection system.

We chose Bessel beamu[$J_o(ar)}$)l in order to investigate image forming property of the optical system with combined filter of amplitude and phase(CFAP). This paper investigated numerically the influence of number of nodes of these beams on the PSF, encircled energy(E), transmission ratio(TR), gain((;) for an aberrated(1aberration-free) optical system. These results showed that the property of PSF differ considerably from the one of the existing amplitude filter and that Bessel beam has super compensating effect for an optical system with spherical aberration. Particularly, the Bessel beam has less the size of central spot than the radius of Airy disk, this result can therefore be applied to the fabrication of semiconductor device.

Spatial filters were designed for 1 TW high power phosphate glass laser development. Laser beam should be expanded from 1 mm diameter to 200mm diameter. Pin hole size should be determined and most of incident energy should be transmitted through out to final spatial filter. Each pin hole size is determined by calculating encircled energy for Gaussian beam from the oscillator. The optical tube length of each spatial filter is corrected to have the best collimating quality by scew raytracing through the total system.

The MATS (Mesosphere Airglow/Aerosol Tomography Spectroscopy) satellite is the next Swedish science microsatellite. We report optical performance test results of the limb telescope, which is the major payload. This telescope is designed with "linear astigmatism-free" (LAF) off-axis optical system in order to have high optical performance across the wide field of view. We measured Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) and Encircled Energy Diameter (EED) of the limb telescope. Full field imaging tests show expected results without linear astigmatism across the full field of view ($5.67^{\circ}{\times}0.91^{\circ}$). Since the amount of stray light is from the earth and the sun, we also simulated and measured the stray light in the field image.

We present a new design for an endoscope objective lens composed of a lexible fiber bundle with 30,000 core, and a gradient-index (GRIN) objective lens with an optical adaptor. The characteristic of this objective lens is to be minimally-invasive to be able to insert easily in the internal organs of live animals. The GRIN lens has a small diameter and a very simple construction, which is selected with the diameter of 1.0 mm and numerical aperture of 0.5 to achieve a minimally-invasive outer diameter and a high resolution. The resultant designed lens shows the performance as follows; a lateral resolution of 1.63 um and diameters of 100% encircled energy of $0.3\;{\mu}m$ and $0.83\;{\mu}m$ for the on-axis and the off-axis image point, respectively. Also, we can present a cheap solution with a lateral resolution of 1.74 um and diameters of 100% encircled energy of $1.10\;{\mu}m$ and $2.84\;{\mu}m$ for the on-axis and the off-axis image point, respectively.

We present the optical design and a sensitivity analysis for a wide field of view (FOV) instrument operating at UV and IR wavelengths. The ongoing investigation is performed in collaboration with Omnisys Instruments (Sweden) and focuses on a telluric-limb-viewing instrument that will fly in a low Earth orbit to study mesospheric wave structures over a wide range of horizontal scales in the altitude range 80 - 100 km. The instrument has six wavelength channels which consist of 4 channels of IR and 2 of UV. We are proposing an optical design based on three mirror aplanatic off-axis reflective system. The entrance pupil diameter and effective focal length are 45 mm and 270 mm, respectively. The FOV is $5.5^{\circ}{\times}1^{\circ}$ and the secondary mirror is set for stop. The optical specification is required to have an encircled energy of at least 80 % within a diameter of 21 um. We performed sensitivity analysis for the longest wavelength of 772 nm in consideration of the diffraction limit of system. The results show that tolerance limits for positions and angles of the mirrors are not very sensitive compared with typical error budgets of manufacturing and assembling process. The secondary mirror has the most sensitive tolerance for surface figure of 250 nm in root-mean-square.

본 연구에서는 미국 맥도날드 천문대 (Mcdonald Observatory)에 있는 82인치 Otto Struve 망원경의 가이드 망원경으로 사용하기 위해 2개의 반사경을 이용해 구경이 100 mm이고 유효초점거리가 800 mm인 비축 반사망원경을 설계하였다. 비축 반사경은 일반적인 축 대칭인 반사경보다 가공이 매우 어렵기 때문에 형상 정밀도의 요구량을 알 수 있다면 비축 반사경을 가공하는 과정에서 시간과 비용을 절약할 수 있다. 광학계가 수차가 잘 보정된 회절한계의 성능이기 때문에 엔서클드 에너지 직경(Encircled Energy Diameter) 분석을 통해 민감도 분석을 하였다. 광학설계 소프트웨어인 CodeV를 사용하여 80 % 에너지가 $20{\mu}m$ 내에 들도록 공차한계로 설정하였으며, 기준 파장은 $587.56{\mu}m$이다. 또한 부경과 초점 면 사이의 거리를 보상자로 설정하여 공차가 광학계의 성능에 미치는 영향을 최소화하였다. 민감도 분석은 반사경의 위치, 회전, 그리고 반사경의 형상 정밀도에 대해 수행하였다. 분석 결과, 반사경의 위치와 각도는 일반적인 제작 및 조립 공차보다 매우 작은 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 형상정밀도는 주경이 부경보다 민감하였으며 자승 제곱 평균제곱근 (root-mean-square) 32 nm로 가장 민감한 결과가 나왔다.

A focal length-correcting lens called the F-theta lens is required to compensate for the different focus on spot size due to the deflected incident laser beam. The F-theta lens was designed by the ray tracing method and fabricated by a 3D printer with polymer-based material. The designed F-theta lens is able to compensate for the focus on spot size by an incidence angle of 0 to 2 degrees. Based on the analysis of the simulation, there was almost no aberration in the $0^{\circ}C$ incidence angle, and the maximum of $50{\mu}m$ of aberration was observed at the incidence angle of $2^{\circ}$. Diffraction-encircled energy was analyzed to characterize the designed optics, and an image simulation was performed to confirm the actual image resolution.
